Sad to see him go but as others have said it's long overdue. He went stale at Arsenal and did not want to make change when everybody else (The Top sides) did.

I think this may escalate a few other Managers departing...do Man Utd put up with Mourinho or does Mourinho put up with Man Utd he is approaching his historic expiry date?...does Roman think Conte needs to be replaced now instead of in the summer when there'll be more competition for the Top Managers out there?...is Poch leaving the spuds for PSG or Real Madrid? does Levy escalate his departure just like Roman might, for the same reasons?
This could be a whirlwind few weeks ahead on the Managers front!

Wenger is a total legend. He was a huge influence on changing the face of English football. I remember Arsenal were god-awful to watch before his arrival, playing boot-ball.
The Arsenal board should have moved him into a consultancy role 5 years ago though because he is simply too old and too set in his ways to lead as a manager anymore.
I will miss him though.

Have nothing but respect for Wenger. He had Arsenal play top quality football. Probably stayed one or two seasons too long but lets keep in mind Arsenal could win the Euro league and get into CL.

I sincerely hope they do.
That would be a fine and fitting end to his career.

Arsen is a wonderful manager. He built a strong foundation at Arsenal and has developed some wonderful players. His style of football was poetic to watch during Arsen's peak years - He's the only EPL manager to lead an unbeaten side - that is something to be admired. I see a lot of people still trying to aim digs at arsen or come across as nonchalant - but these people know nothing about football.

He is probably the main reason why I've always sort of supported Arsenal from a distance.
Always wanted them to win, apart from against us.

How are the fans on their forum reacting I wonder?

I sincerely hope they've all wound their necks in now, and are starting to appreciate what a magnificent job he's performed over the past 2 decades.
Not so much recently, granted

I sincerely hope that their fans are big enough to appreciate that he has kept them in the champions league for all these years built a stadium while continuing to play attractive football.
